Suffolk County Council and Suffolk Coastal District Council are continuing to raise serious concerns around plans for windfarm projects proposed by ScottishPower Renewables, and the lack of coordination with other energy projects proposed on the coast.

Tourism businesses from across Waveney are invited to this year’s leaflet exchange, offering the chance to distribute promotional material to the district’s network of Visitor Information Points ahead of the summer season.

Suffolk County Council, working in partnership with West Suffolk Council, the East Suffolk Councils of Suffolk Coastal and Waveney, and Babergh and Mid Suffolk district councils has been successful in securing £1.725 million from the Department for Environment Food & Rural Affairs, which will contribute to providing Superfast Broadband access to many businesses across Suffolk’s most rural areas, who are not in plans to receive Superfast Broadband as part of the current fibre broadband rollout.

At a historic meeting this evening, councillors from Suffolk Coastal and Waveney District Councils set the first ever budget for the new East Suffolk Council, which will replace the two existing authorities on April 1st.
